if any other prominent black ball player said it, it may mean something. but, sheffield is so off the charts stupid that he gets a pass. it's just gary being gary.

they'll find a way to lose. i wasn't boasting about my team. it's not news that we suck. have i said anything to the contrary?

and still, the team treads water.

before he broke his leg ~8 times he was.

surely as a player, not as a coach.

where's the *snore* smiley?

1st round, 7th pick of the draft.

sure sign of racism.

thank you, mr. paragraph for the chapter from game of shadows. how come you didn't address my response to you in your bonds thread?

From espn.com: In an interview with GQ magazine that's currently on newsstands, the typically outspoken Tigers designated hitter said Latin players have replaced African-Americans as baseball's most prevalent minority because they are easier to control. "I called it years ago. What I called is that you're going to see more black faces, but there ain't no English going to be coming out. … [it's about] being able to tell [Latin players] what to do -- being able to control them," he told the magazine. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2891875

ahh.... anyway, if i were the chisox, i'd be looking for prospects.

why would the white sox do that?

only if the wnba is not on that night. nothing stops me from watching those sacramento monarchs.

in the long line of giants receiver flops, i guess he's above the curve. i don't buy the argument of 'hey, he wasn't ray carruth' however. we could have had: james farrior warrick dunn tony gonzalez jim drunkinmiller -

really? i thought he benefited by being on the other side of strahan. as you said, got him a big contract and he didn't do much in indy.

if it's ok to flop in basketball if it's ok to flop and provoke phantom penalties in football then what's wrong with what a-rod did? the idiot who fell for it is the one who should be mocked.

Question 1: Why is GO ELI such an ass?

ok- but not in the magnitude of rocky thompson. he was taken in the 1st round, right in front of jack tatum and jack youngblood, and he was jack shit.

rocky thompson was a RB. you could have said toast patterson.

Harry Carson

and now torre throws a-rod under the bus and the stage is set for a sign and trade later this month. dodgers? http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/6868404...3162&ATT=49

once again, well said. don't expect a response from Jim though, he tends to shy away from debate.

ok, no sweat. mostly, it's about the little nancy boys in the media not liking that he looks at them cockeyed. if he was a media darling, it would be very different. i'm not condoning his behavior, just don't think it should make him take the bullet for a generation.

yes, i will be happy for him but i don't put much stock in personal records. rings are what counts. the bonds story is much bigger everywhere else than SF, we're just happy armando NaBalkoff is gone. if you go on the giants board, the only bonds stories are started by trolls. any fan of baseball in this era has supported cheaters, i am not embarassed. that was a dumb question.
